Description of problem: This one of a cascade of related reports presented each morning after I open my laptop. SELinux is preventing certwatch from using the 'dac_override' capabilities. ***** Plugin dac_override (91.4 confidence) suggests ********************** If you want to help identify if domain needs this access or you have a file with the wrong permissions on your system Then turn on full auditing to get path information about the offending file and generate the error again. Do Turn on full auditing # auditctl -w /etc/shadow -p w Try to recreate AVC. Then execute # ausearch -m avc -ts recent If you see PATH record check ownership/permissions on file, and fix it, otherwise report as a bugzilla. ***** Plugin catchall (9.59 confidence) suggests ************************** If you believe that certwatch should have the dac_override capability by default. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access. Do allow this access for now by executing: # ausearch -c 'certwatch' --raw | audit2allow -M my-certwatch # semodule -X 300 -i my-certwatch.pp Additional Information: Source Context system_u:system_r:certwatch_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context system_u:system_r:certwatch_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Objects Unknown [ capability ] Source certwatch Source Path certwatch Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages Target RPM Packages Policy RPM <Unknown> Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 4.19.4-300.fc29.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Nov 23 13:03:11 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 320 First Seen 2018-11-26 08:56:37 AEST Last Seen 2018-12-03 10:08:38 AEST Local ID 2b901af2-5781-414a-b0f7-d3631a745d77 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1543795718.634:10531): avc: denied { dac_override } for pid=22300 comm="certwatch" capability=1 scontext=system_u:system_r:certwatch_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:system_r:certwatch_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=capability permissive=0 Hash: certwatch,certwatch_t,certwatch_t,capability,dac_override Additional info: component: selinux-policy reporter: libreport-2.9.6 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 4.19.4-300.fc29.x86_64 type: libreport Potential duplicate: bug 1485457
